If you are a legitimate patient who has been given the opportunity to use medical marijuana to alleviate your ailments, you might have started to become interested in trying your hand at a bit of gardening yourself. Make sure that your doctor's recommendation allows you to cultivate plants for personal use, and make sure that you stay within any legal maximums that may be in effect in your area. As long as you play by the rules, growing your own is really quite easy and a lot of fun.

Like any other plant, cannabis has many different varieties. These are usually referred to as strains, and they are grossly divided into two basic sorts.

Indicas are one of the two broad categories of cannabis. These flowers tend to affect the patient in more mental ways, specifically in calming or slowing frantic thought. Because of this property, Indicas are highly prized as medicine for those who suffer from anxious disorders or depressive episodes. Those who treat themselves with Indicas report that the effects allow them to put their thoughts into perspective without all the anxiety.

The other broadly defined category of cannabis plants is called Sativa. These are taller, scrawnier plants for the most part, and they do take a couple of weeks more than Indicas to fully mature. The overall effect of a Sativa is one of relaxation. This can be physical or mental, though it is usually physical. People who suffer from chronic pain problems frequently prefer this sort of plant.

If this is your first attempt at growing your own medicine, there are some considerations to think about first. You will obviously need to dedicate a portion of your garden, or your home if you plan to grow indoors, to the care and maintenance of your cannabis plants. Sometimes security concerns can be an issue here. It may be legal for you to grow this plant, but that doesn't mean that some people might not be upset about it.

Some people are interested in the hybrid strains. As virtually no cannabis strains are one hundred percent pure Sativa or Indica, most cannabis can address both the physical and the mental concerns of the patient to various degrees. These hybrids comprise a significant chunk of the available genetics and are extremely popular to grow.

Some good strains for a first time grower to get started with include White Rhino (derived from the most potent of all cannabis, the White Widow), Black Domina (a beautiful dark purple flower with significant power behind it), and Chocolope, which is a very fragrant hybrid of Cannalope Haze and a Chocolate Thai. Each of these three are relatively easy for a new gardener to deal with.

Growing your own medical marijuana frees you from the need to purchase your medicine. Sometimes this is far more attractive to people. If you think this is something you would like to try, above all else make sure that you are within the limits of the local laws.
